Chapter 879 The game between master and apprentice ([-])
"Johnson, you take a break, Rasoul Butler, you come to defend Durant, defend like Johnson did before, give confrontation, put pressure, consume him, and make him feel uncomfortable~!!"

During the mandatory timeout in the first quarter here, Lan Shengli said to the players.

Although the Clippers fell behind the opponent after half a quarter of the game, the point difference is not big, and now the Clippers have no performance requirements, so it is enough for young players to perform well.

After the suspension ended, both sides made some personnel adjustments.

The Thunder replaced Ibaka and Evans, and the Clippers replaced Blake.

Because of marking Westbrook and making up defenses, Hill also consumed a lot of physical energy.

"Ibaka is a bit difficult to deal with~, his impact can be countered by Jordan, but Ibaka can pull out and shoot, which is very difficult~"

Lan Shengli thought to himself.

After all, there are only less than 9 players that the Clippers can play now, so it is really hard for a clever woman to cook without rice~
"Swipe~!!!"

While talking here, Ibaka faced Jordan and made a mid-range shot directly, and it was Westbrook who sent the assist.

"Ibaka was supposed to replace Green. After all, Ibaka played the [-]th position, but facing Jordan, Ibaka played the [-]th position. Although the height difference is obvious, Ibaka The card can be pulled out to shoot, but Jordan can't leave the inside to defend, Blue, I have given you another problem, let's see how you can solve it~!!"

Brooks thought.

Here, Blake passed the ball carelessly, and was almost cut off by Evans, who made a prediction in advance.

Once this kind of gambling-style steal cannot be snatched, it is like giving the opponent points.

Harden, who received the ball without any risk, was already unguarded.

The calm Harden even dribbled the ball first, and then made a three-pointer.

"Dangdang~, brush~"

The ball bounced into the net.

The Clippers can only rely on Harden's personal ability on the offensive end.

"Hey~, if the Clippers chose Griffin and the Thunder chose Harden, that would be great. Harden's technical characteristics are really suitable for the Thunder. He can replace Evans. , as the sixth man position, can provide offensive firepower in the rotation stage~, and Harden’s technical characteristics are also very lacking in the Thunder today. If Durant, Westbrook, Harden and Green, Ibaka With such a lineup, there is really a chance to create Wang Chao, hey~, I blame this Bru, really~, haha~"

Brooks thought, sighing helplessly.

At the draft that year, almost all the media and experts believed that the Clippers would choose Griffin with the No. [-] pick, but Lan Shengli disappointed everyone.

Lan Shengli's approach also helped the Grizzlies win the "No. [-] pick".

Speaking of back to the game.

After the two sides rotated their lineups to start the duel, the Thunder were obviously stronger.

The Clippers only have Harden as a threat on the offensive end, but the Thunder are different.

After Westbrook clarified the organizational tasks, he frantically delivered shells to Durant.

Durant also showed the ability of a scoring machine, scoring consecutive points, helping the Thunder expand the point difference.

"Click, clang~, brush~!!!"

With Evans hitting a layup at the buzzer, the first quarter ended.

29: 20.

The Thunder have secured a nearly double-digit lead.

During the intermission, the Thunder players looked relaxed and didn't seem to be sweating much, but the Clippers players looked a lot more tired. After all, their rotation scale is small, so each player can only Can spend more time and physical energy to fight.

"The defensive end switches to zone defense, everyone uses zone defense to reduce energy consumption as much as possible~!"

Lan Shengli told the team members.

"The opponent consumes a lot of physical energy, so we need to let them continue to consume physical energy. If they grab a rebound and have a chance to make a fast break, they should fight resolutely, don't drag the position, play fast resolutely, and bring the rhythm of the game~ !! Run up~!!"

Brooks exhorted the players.

Brooks is obviously "sprinkling salt on the wound" of the Clippers.

"The opponent may also use zone defense. If they use zone defense, one person must stand at the free throw line. We have practiced this tactic of breaking zone defense many times during training. Everyone, remember it carefully and think about it~!! "

Brooks continued to exhort.

Obviously, Brooks once again guessed the position of Lan Shengli's next move in advance.

Soon, the second quarter began.

The offensive end of the Clippers can only rely on Harden's personal ability to attack piecemeal.

It was only at this time that I realized the importance of Gooden and Brand to the team. Unfortunately, these two players are no longer in the team.

The Thunder's oppressive defense made the Clippers' offense very jerky.

The Thunder are pursuing the victory.

Even if the Clippers use zone defense, the Thunder can solve it by letting Ibaka stand at the free throw line.

Ibaka took the ball from the top arc of the free throw line. The Clippers' defensive players did not dare to stick too close, but they could not stay too far away, for fear of three seconds of defense.

So in this ambiguous defensive state, Ibaka directly made a jumper from the free throw line.

"Swipe~!!"

"Swipe~!!"

The hollow hits again and again made the point difference continue to be widened.

"The Thunder team has too many offensive points, and it's really a loss for the other~, and the main reason is that these young players are running in well. A powerful force that is very difficult to deal with~!!"

Lan Shengli sighed.

"If Ibaka could have been selected by our Clippers at that time, we would not have to be so stretched inside now~~, hey~, maybe this is the arrangement of fate~"

Lan Shengli shook his head and continued to sigh.

"I really envy Mr. Brooks for having such a good deck of cards in his hand. If I can also have one, maybe I can win the championship this season or next season~!"

Lan Shengli smiled wryly and continued to sigh.

This expression of envy is very natural and real.

But Lan Shengli is a coach who can turn decay into magic. It's really hard to say what the final result of this game will be.

"Beep~~"

"Dah, bang bang~
Here, Harden broke through the gap, took advantage of Evans' stealth action, took advantage of the situation to meet him, and made a shooting action. The referee immediately blew his whistle.

Although Evans felt wronged, he was indeed fooled.
